Mountain Creek Water Park Introduce

Mountain Creek Water Park, located at 200 NJ-94, Vernon Township, NJ 07462, USA, offers a water park experience with a variety of slides and recreational activities. As a featured location within the "Water Parks Near Me" category, it provides water-based attractions and also offers snowboarding during the winter months.

Customer reviews indicate a mix of experiences. During the winter, the park offers snowboarding, with varying levels of trails available. However, some reviewers found even the beginner trails to be challenging and noted that the park can be crowded.

During the summer, the water park features exhilarating slides, but visitors should be prepared for long walks to some of the rides, including steep inclines. Free parking is available, but it is located at a distance from the entrance. Closer parking is available for a fee, though space is limited.

Weekends are particularly crowded, with wait times for slides reaching up to an hour. The bathrooms and changing rooms are described as "super filthy," which is a common complaint. The water temperature is noted as being "a bit cold for the little ones." The park is also not easily navigable with strollers or wheelchairs.

There have been reports of wildlife, such as small snakes, within the park. Employees may not be adequately trained to handle such situations.

Reviewers suggest visiting on weekdays to avoid crowds and long wait times. Despite the challenges, the slides are described as "exhilarating and fun," and some reviewers express a desire to return during less busy times.

I went there for snowboarding and it wasn’t too bad. The have train for different levels of experience and I was snowboarding on easy green trail. I found it bit difficult for me and too many people. I don’t know if it’s normal or not. But experience wise it was not bad at all.

Be prepared to walk a little steep to some of the rides. The free parking is also a walk from the entrance. You can pay for better closer parking instead of getting sent to a dirt road as well but limited space. Don't recommend going on the weekend because it is beyond full. Just to get on 1 slide with a tube takes about 1 hr wait line. Bathrooms and changing rooms are super filthy. The slides and exhilarating and fun. The water is a bit cold for the little ones. Hard to get around with stroller, wheelchairs etc. Also came across a small snake that wasn't bothering anyone. Employees didn't know how to handle the situation because a group behind me made a ruckus about the snake. I'd love to return on a weekday in hope of less people and less wait time on the lines.

This is such a beautiful place. When we got here we initially passed the parking lot and then realized it was all on gravel which I feel like they could pave the pavement. But the walk to the entrance wasn't bad but the walk in the park is very exhausting. Going up the hills to every activity Will drain you out before you even get on the rides especially if you're unfit. The wave pool was really nice and so was the cliff jump. I wish they offered more lawn chairs for the guests to lounge around. The only issue that I have was some of the vendors only excepted Apple Pay and the other vendors only accepted physical card so there is no cash. I wish someone had told me if you had cash on hand you have to go to the lodge and convert it onto a visa card, which is at the beginning of the entrance. I don't recall seeing any signs in regards to this. I will say the price of the food was pretty high compared to a Six Flags considering they didn't have that many attractions. But the admission prices were decent on Groupon.

Amazing park! A lot of tubes, pools and other entertainment. We spent at least 5-6 hours to explore all territory. I bought tickets through groupon, so price was 30$ per person.

At first I was scared to come here because of all the reviews I was reading. I actually enjoyed myself . Yes it is a lot of walking up and down the hills. If your not use to the walking and using those leg muscles your body will be sore the next day. Not good to go with babies or kids that are in strollers. You’re going up and down hills , going over bumps, not good to go with strollers. The water is freezing cold. There’s really no where to sit. So bring your beach chairs. We didn’t buy food there . We had a cooler with food and drinks and left it in the car. You can’t bring food in. It is a far walk from the car to the water park but it’s not that bad. We all just walked back to the car when everyone was hungry and came back in. Water shoes are not recommended, but I would definitely wear some water shoes or some crocs. The floor is very rough and hot. You can’t go down the slides with water shoes on they make you take them off, but you can come back and pick it up. I would go back . The whole family enjoyed themselves.
